No.

It's bad to 1) have sudden, 2) change, 3) not to mention early on (3 years), 4) that brings forth F2P, because there's nothing really good about F2P. F2P will always mean the game consists of an element that isn't fun, "grinding"; an element that tries to force you to pay for things in-game.

He's right for not wanting to show the video because he knows people are dumb. Despite having a "under development" message on the screen (of a video), he knows people are still too dumb to read or recognize/realize what that message means or entails.

Nevertheless, I still wouldn't show a video because first impressions are most important, and despite "under development" message, it's still important to have first impression be the best/accurate one.
